The Structure of Complicated Molecules. (0:52)


Transcript

Linus Pauling: Like many other scientists, I have been interested recently - for a number of years, in fact - in the question of the molecular structure of the human body, the molecular structure of human beings. You know we know a good bit about the structure of simple molecules. Now the time has come that we can learn something about the structure of complicated molecules too. The human body contains many kinds of molecules such as the water molecule, H2O, with only three atoms in it, also many very complicated molecules, among which are the proteins. We don’t know much about proteins yet but we know more than we knew five years ago, or ten years ago, and as the years go by we shall learn much more.
